VERY HARD
Cadair Idris, Mynydd Moel and Craig Lwyd Circular
15.6km · 1,044m climb · Loop
You get the full horseshoe around one of Snowdonia's most dramatic cwms rather than a straight there-and-back to the summit, so the mountain's best feature - the cliff-ringed bowl at its heart - is in view for most of the route.

EXPERT
Snowdon and Crib Goch from Llanberis
30.0km · 2,204m climb · Loop
Crib Goch is one of the most exposed ridges in Britain, and this route puts it in the middle of a big mountain day rather than as the whole objective, so you get the scramble and a proper crossing into the Glyderau either side of it.

VERY HARD
Yr Wyddfa via Llanberis Path
16.2km · 959m climb · Out & back
It's the most runnable line to the summit of Yr Wyddfa, following the rack railway most of the way up, so you can move fast on genuinely good underfoot conditions rather than picking through rock.

EXPERT
Yr Wyddfa via Miners' Track, Pyg Track and Crib Goch
12.0km · 710m climb · Loop
Most people treat the Miners' and Pyg Tracks as a straightforward there-and-back pairing, but this GPX shows the loop actually crossing Crib Goch, which changes the entire character of the day.
